How We Ship Your Plants
Here's what you can expect:
Beware- not all online plant nurseries are the same!
Some nurseries cut corners to save money- especially when shipping larger plants!
- We never ship bare-root plants
- We never chop or cut roots just to fit into a smaller box
- We ship plants with large, developed root systems so they establish faster at your home
- We focus on plant health first- not minimizing shipping costs
A strong root system is the foundation for long-term success, and we believe your plant should arrive ready to thrive- not struggling to recover from shortcuts.
Here’s exactly what you can expect after you place your order.
Selecting Your Plants for Shipping
Once you place your order, our nursery team selects your plant and inspects it to make sure it meets our quality standards. Every plant we ship is chosen for:
- Strong health and vibrant foliage
- A well-developed root system
- Correct sizing based on what you ordered
We take pride in sending plants that are ready to succeed when they arrive at your home. We try our best to exceed your expectations!
Once your plants are selected, we give them a drink of water before their journey. Then, we wrap each plant's roots up in a plastic bag, so that they do not dry out during shipping.
Carefully Packed & Protected
Live plants can’t be packed like ordinary boxes, so we do it differently.
Your plant is carefully secured inside a strong shipping box to protect it while traveling through the carrier network. Depending on what you ordered, packaging may include:
- Support materials to keep the plant stable
- Protection around the pot and root ball to prevent shifting
- Reinforced boxing to reduce bending or breakage
For larger trees, we use oversize boxes designed to safely accommodate the size and structure of the plant during shipping.
Sometimes, you will receive multiple plants inside a box. This is helpful because it can evenly distribute the weight throughout the box, which helps keeps the plants safe and secure throughout delivery.
Fast, Reliable Shipping with FedEx
Most Nationwide Plants orders ship with FedEx. Over the years, we’ve found FedEx to be the best carrier for live plants, especially larger items, because:
- They deliver quickly across the country
- They are consistently the most gentle with live plant packages
- Faster transit means less stress on your plant
Once your order ships, we will email you tracking information so you can follow your delivery from our nursery to your doorstep.
We ship Monday through Friday. Most orders ship the next business day, unless you request a custom shipping date.
We Ship From Multiple Nursery Locations
Nationwide Plants ships from multiple locations across the country, including locations on both the East Coast and West Coast. This allows us to:
- Deliver faster in more regions
- Reduce time in transit for your plants
- Ship large items more efficiently
How We Measure Your Tree Size
We measure tree height from the soil line, not including the pot.
That means when you order a 5-6 ft. tree, you’re getting a tree that is 5-6 ft. tall above the soil, not “including the container.” This gives you a good idea of what to expect when your trees arrive, and what they will look like when they are in the ground.
What Your Plant Might Look Like After Shipping
It’s completely normal for a plant to look slightly different after being in transit. Your plant has been traveling in a box, and you may notice:
- Minor leaf drop
- Soil that shifted slightly in the pot
- Temporary drooping from being in a darker environment
In most cases, your plant perks up quickly once it’s unboxed, watered (if needed), and placed in the proper environment.
Unboxing Your Plants (Quick & Easy)
When your plants arrive, we recommend:
-
Open carefully (avoid cutting into foliage)
-
Remove all packing materials
-
Check soil moisture
-
If the soil feels dry, give it a thorough watering
-
-
Let the plant recover
-
Give it a little fresh air after shipping
-
If you ever have questions or concerns, we’re happy to help!
Our 30-Day Plant Promise
We stand behind every order we ship with our 30-Day Plant Promise.
If your plant dies within 30 days of delivery, we will replace it or refund it. We’ve found that if there are ever issues, they typically show up in the first 30 days- so this guarantee gives our customers real peace of mind.
If anything doesn’t look right, contact us and we’ll help you troubleshoot quickly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you ship bare-root plants?
No. We ship in soil with an established root system for the best success after delivery.
How fast will my order ship?
Most orders ship the next business day, unless you request a custom ship date.
Will my plant survive shipping?
Yes. Plants are resilient when packed correctly and shipped quickly. Our process is designed to protect your plant throughout transit.
What if my plant arrives looking droopy?
This is usually temporary from being in a dark box. Unbox promptly, check moisture, and allow time to adjust. If you’re concerned, reach out—we’re here to help.

Deutschland Dahlia Bulbs – Classic Elegance with Pure White Blooms
Deutschland Dahlias are a stunning addition to any garden or patio space, known for their pristine white flowers and compact, bushy growth habit. If you’re looking for a dahlia variety that delivers timeless beauty with easy maintenance, this is a perfect choice. The pure white petals provide a striking contrast against deep green foliage, making it an ideal focal point in garden beds, borders, or container arrangements.
What Makes Deutschland Dahlias Special?
- Pure White Blooms – Unlike many dahlias with mixed or multicolored petals, Deutschland produces crisp, snow-white flowers that exude elegance and simplicity.
- Compact Growth – This variety typically stays smaller than some of the towering dinnerplate dahlias, making it perfect for urban gardens, balconies, or small spaces.
- Continuous Blooms – Deutschland Dahlias bloom from midsummer until the first frost, giving you months of floral display.
- Great for Cut Flowers – The strong stems and long-lasting blooms make this variety an excellent choice for floral arrangements.
Plant Details
- Mature Height: 24-36 inches
- Mature Width: 18-24 inches
- Sun Exposure: Full Sun
- Botanical Name: Dahlia ‘Deutschland’
- Other Common Names: White Dahlia, Deutschland White Dahlia
Why Choose Deutschland Dahlias?
If you love dahlias but don’t want an overwhelming size, Deutschland is a great option. Its moderate height means it won’t overshadow other plants, yet it still provides a stunning display. The pure white flowers make it an excellent choice for mixed arrangements, offering a calming balance to brighter flowers like reds, oranges, or purples.
These dahlias are also low maintenance. As long as they receive plenty of sunlight and well-draining soil, they thrive with minimal care. Deadheading spent blooms encourages even more flowers, and regular watering helps maintain their lush foliage.
Perfect for Any Garden Style
- Formal Gardens – The uniform white blooms create a sophisticated and polished look.
- Cottage Gardens – Mix Deutschland Dahlias with pastel roses, lavender, or foxgloves for a soft, romantic feel.
- Modern Minimalist Gardens – Their crisp white petals complement sleek, structured landscapes.
- Cut Flower Gardens – If you love making fresh bouquets, this dahlia is a must-have.
Caring for Your Deutschland Dahlias
- Planting – Start with well-draining soil and full sun exposure. Dahlias love rich, organic matter, so adding compost at planting time helps.
- Watering – Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Deep watering a few times a week works best.
- Feeding – A low-nitrogen fertilizer (like a bloom booster) encourages strong blooms without excessive foliage growth.
- Deadheading – Removing spent flowers encourages continuous blooming.
- Winter Care – In colder zones (below USDA Zone 8), lift the tubers before the first frost, store them in a cool, dry place, and replant in spring.
Who Will Love This Dahlia?
- Gardeners Who Appreciate Classic Beauty – If you love the timeless elegance of white flowers, this is for you.
- Cut Flower Enthusiasts – You’ll have fresh, long-lasting blooms for arrangements all summer.
- Container Gardeners – Deutschland’s manageable size makes it a great choice for pots.
- Beginners – Easy to grow with minimal fuss, making it a great starter dahlia.
Deutschland Dahlias are an excellent way to bring pure, crisp white flowers into your garden without overwhelming space or maintenance needs. Whether you want to create a serene outdoor retreat or fill your home with fresh-cut blooms, this variety delivers season after season.
